| Thinking about selling my CD collection = MP3 Gretsch6120, are you really sure that you want to sell all your CDs for MP3? Sounds like something you might regret down the road. 1500 CDs don't take that much space to store (unlike 1500 LPs).Are you keeping a lossless version around on harddriv... | |
| Donald Fagen's Nightfly - Love it or Hate it? Sorry, we're going to have to agree to disagree on both the estimation of emotion and the definition of "too perfect"! ;-) Of course, emotional connection is very listener dependent :-) . But I will make sure to put Donal Fagen on my table tonigh... | |
| Donald Fagen's Nightfly - Love it or Hate it? I suspect the human element is lost or reduced when something becomes so perfect that every drumbeat is identical. Sometimes it is the little imperfections or slight variations that give feeling to music... a little emphasis here, a little restrai... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496: Ease of Use Edaltford - good point. I run the Behringer fully open and attenuate with Endler attenuators down to regular levels. | |
| effect of tubes in cd players I prefer german style cheesecake rather than new york style. Let me assure you the differences are NOT small. | |
| Donald Fagen's Nightfly - Love it or Hate it? Sorry, but it is kind of tough to like Tom Waits and Donald Fagen at the same time...I stick with Tom for perfect albums.Kind of agree with Boa2:I don't dislike the album. It's just a little too perfect a puzzle for my tastes.Even Steely Dan alway... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496: Ease of Use Tvad, to qualify my comments on the Behringer some more:Finally, I can detect some negative effects of even mild equalization circuit in my system.I did, too.The main problem is when you use the Behringer for frequencies above 150 Hz. Using the PE... | |
| Want to experience tubed CDP? Some correction to my earlier response from 05-10-05:The newer version of the Audio Aero Prima uses a Sony transport, the latest MKII version a Phillips transport. Now which of the two is better is a good questions though. The change over is mainl... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496: Ease of Use The Behringer DEQ2496 is a great little box for the money. A friend of mind borrowed me his for 6 weeks and I will surely get one for myself.It is not too difficult to use, but then I have a Physics Ph.D. :). It has many options and trying all out... | |
| How many pair of speakers do you own? why you would own more than 2 pairs of speakersMore than one place to live - nonlocal entanglement. | |

| CAIN ABBY OWNERS - AMP ADVICE PLEASE Darkmoebius, great you responded to this thread - I remembered someone telling me about the Abby/Almarro combination, but could not remember who.Gfields, I am not sure how much you are planning to spend, but if you will consider separates you migh... | |
| effect of tubes in cd players This type of dual output CDP is really the only way to discern the differences between the two types.The differences you are hearing are more to the particular implementation of the tube or ss output stage. Both tube and ss CDPs are all over the p... | |
| SPICA revival and modification The only thing that was missing when I opned the box was the hefty bill I had been expecting, so I called Spica again to ask how much I owed them and their reply was - ZERO - they didn't even charge me for the return shipping !!!How about that for... | |
| best bang for the buck tube preamp? Hartweger, great suggestion on the Mapletree audio. And they are in Canada! Don't know how that escaped me....I already like the red ones, although I think the red clashes with the red of my Abbys ;)Rene |
